Sunny weather, no zoom, full manual controls, fastest shutter speed for f/2.8. I like to use manual focus for this, setting it to the shortest distance and accomodating accordingly.

One tip that I found very useful is the Unsharp Mask filter in Adobe Photoshop. It GREATLY increases image quality, eliminating the A70 inherited softness.

Nice tip. I just bought PSP8 and this filter makes A70 images really improve (even to my sloppy eye).
